This thesis tends to investigate the regularity of Style Revolution of Novels in 1990s. The revolution gives rise to the echos on "Multivoices chord of Style".An introduction : Style Convention and its EvolutionNovels are arts of language. Style is the most important part that changes the tension between language and novel. It is the best way to express the significance of novel. Elements of style which includes Linguistic ,Narrative, Psychology and Sociology are relative to each other .They form peculiar style convention and inner standard of novel. Investigation of convention is an entrance to research style revolution of novel.Style convention is usually standard. It has a relative stable operating model of language . Style consciousness is the sense of style convention. As a kind of genre, novel has been have strong conciousness to break through and deviate traditional style convention from its birth day .It had two qualitative changes in international literature history: one is Time Form; the other is Spacial Form. We will begin with our investigation right from here.The First Chapter: Dancing with Shackles .Chinese Modern Novel emerged and developed in the 20th Century .It deducted the changing principle of convention from deviation to regularity and to deviation again The vernacular style which was founded in 1920s opposed to Chinese Ancient Novel. "Epic"style of Time Form which treated Realism as its main content became the most outstanding mark of style. Style in that period was not independent, it was behind the content, the theme and the figures, "Dancing with shackles". Style convention deviate a lot in 1990s. Novel became multivarious and prosperous. Writers' style conciouness changed, which resulted in great revolution on structure pattern, style rhetoric, narrative tactics and aesthetic psychology .To spread out Time Form and Spacial Form respectively, we can know the evolution process of style.The Second Chapter: Meaningful Time FormTo some extent , novels are aristic expression of Time's linear structure .This makes the stories very broad and rich .On the 1990s' narrative stage, Time became the structure tension, latent structure motive .structure elements and deep expression of the theme,etc.Then the charm emerged more plentiful ,various , inner and potential .They form many kinds of structures: Fate mold ;Annals mold ;Drama mold ,Space mold ,Grown梪p mold ,etc. They develop the themes with a linear structure .They emphasize order of figures and events presentation and sequence .At the same time ,they present transformation from objective to inner psychology ,then enrich and broaden Time categories of structure .The Third Chapter : Spacial Form on DisseminationAfter abanden time clue in outer conditon ,writers pay attention to the newcreation of Spacial Form. They newly create novel structure by means of BINGZHI, Irony and Chord .This kind of novel abandons Time' linear and creates multidimensional categories. According to this point of view .continuous changes of narrative is the elementary condition. Next, modern writers present their figures as a whole ,which exists not in Time relationship but in a confining system of Spacial relationship .Novel' narrative elements gather inner tension ,and give rise to the distinguishing structure on "Double Tones " and "Dialogue". But they still conceal some negative effect and affect the development of novel.Ending Speech: Uncovered FutureThere are two types on style revolution:: Structure and Rhetoric ,which express various characters such as rich, open ,free and so on .It uncovers the prosess of evolution from "Single"to "Plentiful", "Objective" to "Subjective", "Expressness to Appearance", "Sealing" to "Openness". It also uncovers the tranformation from "Epic" to "Normal", "Group" to "Personality", "Cousciouness Ideology "to "Folk ".
